No wonder some of these pricks retired early.. interesting seeing jordan where he is.. though contracts in the early 80's arent as they are now.
Also, if Pippen is trying to make a comeback due to financial reasons, what the hell did he do with his money?

 

[steve-o]

thats amazin so much coin in there pockets i wonder if they are really worth it sometimes they are over paid

 

[AndrewG23]

i would think lebron will be up there when he gets to his end of his career. very interesting.

 

[nandalinnaung]

very nice stats.... being retired ewing and allan houston are top earned and non-championship winners.. also garnett and webber..

they earned like crazy.. but i am sure at least 15-20% of after tax will go to agents

 

[Funkadelic]

This is cool, puts things in some kind of perspective. Juwan Howard is amazingly high.

 

[Benny J]

Allan Houston and Brian Grant???? Earn over $100mill???

Very interesting stats. These will be all over taken throughout he next 10 years as there is now a shitload more money in the NBA!!

 

[Billyhoyle]

Just had to figure it out for the top ten and i know most are current players:

PER GAME

1 Shaquille O'Neal $236,099.90
2 Kevin Garnett $201,093.23
3 Chris Webber $171,567.55
4 Alonzo Mourning, $163,491.27
5 Juwan Howard $137,256.78
6 Grant Hill $195,667.32
7 Patrick Ewing $104,685.65
8 Anfernee Hardaway $174,635.17
9 David Robinson $119,691.61
10 Allan Houston $140,115.02

 

[card_craze]

aside from NBA making more money each year. There is also inflation rate to consider. $1million ten years agon probably worth $2million today.

also, for guys like Jordan - he made most of his money from endorsements, just look at nike, air jordan, it's the best selling shoes on earth!!

 

[whereiswally78]

With those figures, I just gotta get out on the court and start practicing. I'm sure one of the NBA teams could spare a million or so for a fat, 6'5" bench warmer, with rooted knees ... hell, Oliver Miller used to get a spot!!!

 

[bargey]

Jordan got ****ed over on a 3 mil a year contract for the first 10 years or so of his career. In his last season with the Bulls he got 35 million. The Bulls got a real bargain really.

 

[nandalinnaung]

yea.. hahaha, i still remember that.. but that time, i still remember reading, jordan got paid his salary even though he was not playing in almost entire 94-95 season... but that time, shaq got paid not different from MJ too..

now, when it all became business... in top 10.. we all can see, except ewing and admiral, the rest of the players are from early 90s.. lol

Jordan got ****ed over on a 3 mil a year contract for the first 10 years or so of his career. In his last season with the Bulls he got 35 million. The Bulls got a real bargain really.

i remember reading that for the few after Jordan retired for the 2nd time, the whole Chicago Bulls team was getting paid less than he did in last season, thats amazing.

Juwan Howard signed a 105m 7yr deal from memory; one of the reasons, along with KG's massive deal, that the owners cracked the shits about contracts.

Brian Grant, Allan Houston, Howard all got massive deal; Grant 86m over 7yrs, HOuston 100m over 6yr and Howard's aforementoined 105m 7yr deal, that makes up the majority of the money they earned over their careers, but if someone offer you an absurd amount of cash, why wouldn' you take it!
